Call for Papers
ESA SPCD Organising Committee is pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the 4rthedition of the International Symposium: Space Passive Component Days SPCD 2020. EPCI European Passive Components Institute has been a proud sponsor of ESA SPCD events.
The 4th SPCD will be held from 13th to 16th October 2020 at ESA/ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands. The SPCD international Symposium is the premier technical conference dedicated to Passive components for space applications. It is an exceptional venue to learn more about the latest advances in this field and meet recognized experts from industry, academia and agencies.

Abstract Submission
Technical Introduction of Components (TICs):
In addition to the technical papers, the SPCD symposium will provide the opportunity for manufacturers to present themselves or to present their products. TICs are quick presentations (5 minutes) of one of the company products or a product family that is under-development or recently qualified or has been introduced to the market. TIC Submission
Private Roadmap Presentation:
SPCD gives the manufacturers the opportunity to communicate their product strategy with their customers in a private session. Free passes are offered for each manufacturer in order to invite his customers. Roadmap Presentation Submission
